RiveAnimation stopped working post upgrade to 0.13.8

[nishitsplashmath]

Description

Post upgrading Rive from 0.12.4 to 0.13.8, Rive is not getting initialized properly for android, ios and m-web platforms. DynamicLibrary.lookup is not getting initialized correctly. We've added dart:ffi as dependency in flutter package.

Steps To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Call RiveFile.network method to get the Rive file with a cdn file Path.

Expected behavior

RiveFile should be returned.

Additional context

1. There was no text initialization happening in 0.12.4
2. When building from source instead of flutter package, we noticed that the initFont() in rive_text_ffi.dart is causing the crash.
